The chaotic finish at Richmond Raceway has sparked a debate about the current championship format in NASCAR.
The recent event at Richmond was mired in controversy primarily due to aggressive driving tactics that many, including seasoned driver Denny Hamlin, have attributed to the flaws in NASCAR's recent championship format.Hamlin did not mince words, stating, as quoted by Motorsport:'We're trying to manufacture these types of moments and when we do it and we look silly like tonight ... your sport has mud on its face.
Yeah, he may have plowed him, but he didn't spin him out, wreck him and didn't give him a chance to finish. He finished second. Where Truex messed up is he shouldn't have let him get to his back bumper. Kept him on the outside. It is nuts how we can relate that to this and this to that.'You have to earn and respect your way in the Cup level ... If the officials don't take care of you, we know how to take care of you.
